Chapter 184


    After the fiasco with Kei, the group was able to do some practicing . Kei was as expected unable to act well, his voice was also a bit husky making it sound weird with his new looks . So after a brief discussion, they decided that Rachel would be doing a voice over for Kei .


    Seeing as she wouldn’t be able to be the female lead, being the voice of the female lead was good as well . It was quite hard to match up to her voice with Kei’s moving mouth, but after a few more tries she was able to get the timing right .


    After an hour of practicing the group from the Drama Club as well as the Mercenary Club needed to leave .


    . . .


    As the group was heading towards Lilitth and Niki’s school, Emily and Rachel sandwiched Sayaka in between them .


    "So Saya what are you going to do about Oliver?" Rachel whispered to Sayaka .


    "You’ll find out tomorrow, it’s going to be a surprise . "


    "Oh, don’t act coy, we all know that you’re going to say yes . " Emily chimed in, and the girls started giggling .


    On the boy’s side, Alex closed in on Oliver . He then whispered something to his friend . "Oliver are you sure about this? Asking Saya to be your girlfriend . "


    "I’m sure . "


    "Even though she is an assassin, do you think she would be able to handle your lifestyle?" Alex was obviously referring to his Oliver’s lifestyle as a mercenary . When Oliver heard Alex say this, another thought pass through his mind .


    Oliver’s mind was currently in a very weird state that he couldn’t understand so it might have some problems with the rtionship he wanted . Still as a man and one who wants to stand in the pinnacle of strength, sweating the small stuff such as this, didn’t feel right .


    "It’s alright Alex I can handle it, and I’m sure she could as well . If she can’t, then I’ll protect her . " Oliver spoke with assurance as he answered .


    Alex who saw the resolute Oliver felt something weird . ’To make Oliver decide to do this, he must really love Saya . . . ’ For some reason, Alex looked at Rachel for a moment, before he shook his head .


    ’What the hell am I thinking? Why am I thinking about it? Damn it, what is this feeling? These people have opened up to me, and I remained the same . What’s the point of all this strength that I gained? What’s the purpose, why did I do this?’


    Alex had gone silent as he started to question himself . Oliver unaware of what was going on thought that he and Alex were having a moment .


    . . .


    Kei, on the other hand, was having even more problems now . He was having a roller coaster of a day . A lot has happened and it was really a lot . At this moment Kei couldn’t help but look at Emily and think about that supposed date of his with her .


    He had failed his confession to Sayaka and was now going on a date with an equally cute girl . Was everything happening right now, really happening, or was he still in a fever dream because of the hallucinogens Emily spread .


    Noticing Kei was staring at her, Emily smiled at him and winked . Seeing that cute disy from Emily, Kei couldn’t help but avert his eyes and blush . Emily on the other hand couldn’t help but smile even more seeing on how cute Kei was acting .


    ’What the hell is wrong with me! First I think Sayaka is the one I like and was about to confess to her . Now I think Emily is cute and I want to confess to her! What the hell is this?! Am I just another f*cking h*rny teenager? Skipping from one girl to another . ’


    Kei was scolding himself in his mind .


    . . .


    Niel who was watching all the varied expressions of his juniors found all of these quite interesting . All of them seem to be improving . He couldn’t help but chuckle on how nice everyone’s rtionships, were flowing so smoothly .


    ’Hmm, I guess I should also try my luck . ’


    . . .


    The group got Lilitth and Niki from school and went their separate ways . It was at this point Alex remembered the thing he asked Rachel to do .


    "Emily I want you, to head home first . " Emily didn’t ask any questions and simply followed what Alex ordered . This surprised Alex but he had no time to deal with this at the moment . With Lilitth at hand, Alex approached Rachel .


    Seeing Alex nearing her got Rachel confused for a bit . If Alex were a normal guy, with everything that happened as well as seeing his best friend confessed to a girl, Alex would’ve thought about confessing to her; but seeing as Alex was far from a normal boy, she didn’t expect much .


    "Rachel, pack what you need and like I said yesterdaye with me back to my house . "
